THt SURPLUS.

Whether 10 hold on to the surplus IN he
Treasury. spend IT, OF use it on reducing
the debt are the questions that agitate the
minds of politicians and statesmen.
The former have mad good long yaca-
ton al home and have, Of course, been
irving to find out what would be most
popular The latter have been skirmish-
ing with the tariff
All the ways suggested for spending
the surplus are open TO objections and
some of them are purely clap-trap. In
any event il is very unlikely that the
majority in the House, with The response
bilitv for the finances resting upon il,
would. on the eve OF national election,
venture upon appropriations of any kind
calling for .eventy-iye or one hundred
millions a year, and if themajority should
be willing TO do so It's certain that the
Executive veto would be interp0sed.
There remains, therefore only the pay
ment Of the debt as a means OF using the
surplus if the revenues be not reduced.
The popular idea is that posterity is
entitled TO the honor Of paying the debt
after what T. now being done in
that direction by he present generation,
and so we come to the question of saw
ing the people instead Of the surplus.
According to the local idea where some
sections Of the country want protection
the right way is to abolish the internal
revenue system and save the tariff but
the saving help to the people is not alto
gelher apparent in that policy.
Congress will be expected to take some
positive steps and between Mr.. Carlisle
on one side and Mr. Randall ON the othei
the Democratic majority in the House
will have a hard time Of it TO get through
the session with record that can stanC
the canvass for President

MODERN IDEAS.

The Electric street-railway in Rich
mond gives the people a cue to the part
they have 10 play If they desire to help
instead OF rctarding the progress and de-
development, of the city If Richmond
was not in all respects good point for
investment with ample promises for
great results, the men who have put 'hst
plant here would not have done IL.
Besides this, the interest in the enter
prise is the representation Of local I'M
derstanding of our advantages on the
part Of the resident capitalists who are
engaged in il. We have called attention
to the fact that our city has developed
more rapidly than any other Southern
CITY, and that by virtue Of her railway
and water connections, her climate, and
her geographical position, Richmond
should be the first city Of the South.
Now. when the Northern capitalist
comes to give US a lesson, let us not ne
so wise in our own conceit or so peryerse
in old ideas a. to decline the lesson when
there is every chance Of advantage in 1t.
We are particularly moved to offer
these remarks. because three years ago
a capitalist wanted to invest the neces-
sarv amount Of money in daily paper
exactly like the TINES, and be was dis
suaded from il by few social and po-
Htical hypocondriacs, who told him iha'
il could not last three months.
All tina, is old fogyism, and utterly
false to the spirit Of the time We live in.
Our pride Of home should take an inspl-
ration from the example Of modern am
bition in the field that our State offers to
enterprise
1t is not wise, nay, it is unmanly and
silly 10 stand at the gates and proclaim
our poverty No State can be poor that
has The natural riches Of Virginia unless
her sons are recrcant to the men from
whom they claim descent
II the Virginians are worthy of their
sires let them act as the brave and sensl-
bic men Of The past did, and achieve the
success that the surroundings offer 10
brains and industry.

The Sugar Trust" and the Gas

must be taken hold Of and put under the

But now Chicago has Milk Trust
which actually curdles the sentiment OF

they can trust themselves to that popular
tactical element, when il is monopolized
by town so supplied with water and
chalk as Chicago is. The mockery OF
the thing is to call such a gigantic fraud
